1 2 3 4 5

INTRO: 1 2 3 4 (x2)

VERSE: 1 3 4 palm muted

Rain rain on my face

It hasn't stopped

Raining for days

My world is a flood

Slowly I become

One with the mud

CHORUS: 1 2 3 4 (x4) then end with 5

But if I can't swim after 40 days

And my mind is crushed

By the crashing waves

Lift me up so high

That I cannot fall

Lift me up

Lift me up-when I'm falling

Lift me up-I'm weak and I'm dying

Lift me up-I need you to hold me

Lift me up-and keep me from drowning again

VERSE

Down pour on my soul

Splashing in the ocean

I'm losing control

Dark sky all around

Can't feel my feet

Touching the ground

CHORUS

BRIDGE: 1 2 3 4 (finger-picking)

Calm the storms that drench my eyes

And dry the streams still flowing

Casting down all waves of sin

And guilt that overthrow me

CHORUS(x2) end with 5
